Got another short video... one the two paths that someone takes when entering into a nursing home and thinking about paying for those monthly fees. In Indiana, they range between $7-10,000 PER. MONTH!

That is a lot of money. And if you've not done planning well in advance ... like at least 5 years before entering into a nursing home... you may have to use all your financial assets to pay for that nursing home stay.

However, there are at least 2 paths. And this short video talks about them.

Sara Kubik is quoted in this recent Wall Street Journal article. https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/training-ai-job-seekers-contractors-1a7bd492?st=6FUhmS&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink

Sara holds a PhD in Technology as well as being a licensed attorney. She works as an AI trainer for Mercor on a part-time basis.

Despite the article's catchy title, Sara is quoted as saying she fully believes that AI will NOT replace lawyers.

Buzzy AI startup Mercor employs tens of thousands of white-collar contractors, and the gig is open to anyone with expertise in their own particular field.

A sad fact is that a lot of attorneys do not pick up their phones when someone calls. Most would never text you. And emailing you? Maybe.

The expectation: Inheritances are gifts. All is smooth sailing!

The reality: Inheritances can be legal headaches. Getting access to the assets may involve choppy waters.

Inheriting money isn’t as simple as opening a gift.
Wills, probate, taxes, delays, and potential disputes can keep you from accessing what’s rightfully yours.

If you're expecting an inheritance — or just found out you're getting one — now’s the time to talk to an attorney.

Kubik Legal, an estate planning law firm in Winfield, Indiana, can help you unlock what's yours. Contact us by e-mail ([email protected]), or book a free telephone consultation through our website (https://kubiklegal.com).

Our firm won't do that. You will get documents that you understand, are not bloated in size, and are still legally valid.

True or False:
A Power of Attorney means you are, in fact, an attorney.

False. A PoA has to do with power. Never list on your resume that you are an attorney if you are a Power of Attorney.🤔😁
